A Skin-sational Spa Line
By Linda Ripoll
Living in sun drenched Southern California is both a blessing and a curse. We enjoy year round gorgeous weather but also experience higher incidences of “weather-worn” skin and absorb dangerous amounts of UVA and UVB rays. A subtle yet effective skin care line has taken the California approach to beauty to the next level with skin-sational results. Skinsational is a fully comprehensive line of skin care products that deliver power packed ingredients that help keep your skin looking fresh and revitalized without all the fuss.
I absolutely loved the California Citrus Lotion. The light, fresh citrus scent and rich, emollient texture of the cream perfectly smoothed my hands and feet and left the faint aroma of a fruit orchard in the middle of spring that delighted my senses. I also really enjoyed the Sheer Moisturizer with SPF 30. After cleansing my face, I applied a thin layer of moisturizer which soaked into my skin leaving my face hydrated and refreshed. I even applied light foundation over it which made my foundation last and kept me looking revived all day.
The Skinsational skin care line was created by the founders of the Skinsational Spa. Located in picturesque Carlsbad, this beautiful spa is the perfect retreat for a bride-to-be in search of some much needed pre-wedding bliss. Known for their amazing treatments and attention to detail, the Skinsational Spa offers a wonderful spa experience in a soothing atmosphere that celebrates serenity, tranquility and beauty with a laid back California attitude.
One of the premiere treatments that brides-to-be would love is the Royal Javanese Lulur treatment. This unique experience is actually a Javanese bridal custom performed every day for 40 days before the wedding. According to the history of the ritual, the lulur recipe is intended to cast the skin in a golden hue that beautifully complements the bridal attire for the special day. The treatment includes a Balinese massage with essential oils, an herbal exfoliation, a cool yogurt splash and then a relaxing fragrant shower. After the shower, the bride soaks in a tub filled with rose petals and other flower essences while sipping a cup of flower tea.
If you want your skin to look skinsational on your most important day, book a Royal Javanese Lulur treatment and then take home the Citrus California Lotion and Sheer Moisturizer with SPF 30 for golden, glorious skin that will last well into your honeymoon.
